this looks really cool, I might have to get a copy...

it's always the best indie games that are in early access it seems for me anyway. still waiting on planet explorers and starbound to be completed before I sink more time into them, even though I've already spent some 200+ hours on each.

well at least the replies let them know there are a good number interested. hopefully things work out for a Linux and Mac release. and in their Q&A shows a "most likely!" response so we shall see :)

I find it funny how I've been saying this was MS's intent since the xbox 360 came out. when I seen all the app integration across their phone and PC. It only makes sense because of how the mobile trends are going. people are moving away from PCs and into all-in-one defacto entertainment systems.

MS has been trying to become Apple ironically enough. but they've been doing it so subtle that not many would realize it until it's to late. The main thing for MS is to keep their developer base. which is a main thing for success. Eventually this is a way for MS to try and passive aggressively force people into the whole MS ecosystem which includes their phone.

This is why I still believe that Linux will eventually take a decent chunk out of the Market as long as Valve is taking notes and making the correct changes where necessary. But with how things are going for Ubuntu lately, even Ubuntu stands to take a decent chunk as well with the snappy package system.

Chucklefish has Starbound working quite nicely on Linux. although they are the publisher of this title not the developer. so... we can only hope :) I did post on the steam forum post as requested. Maybe Ethan can work his magic and make it happen.

the kindred reminds me of stonehearth but with a more modern twist. at least the kindred shows Linux availability already.

thanks for the review on that, I've been wondering how well it might work on Linux. the one downer is how short and lacking in content. I'm not sure if the devs plan to release more content. which I would hope so for the price tag. I was going to just wait for a sale before I bought it to try it out. because honestly even though it has some really innovative ideas. it's not worth the price at the moment. So it seems better to wait to see if they get it all working and maybe see if more content come out.

I just noticed the Vulkan driver ppa for Ubuntu has a Trusty and Xenial build now. but they are still at the 355.00.26 version. should be updated soon I'd assume. makes me consider distro hopping to an Ubuntu flavor soon :P
